Does registering my company with the Delaware Division of Corporations mean I have a business license?

Registering your company with the
Delaware Division of Corporations does not mean that you have a business
license.Generally speaking, registering
your company brings it into existence whereas licensing gives your company
permission to conduct a specific type of business in a specific location (i.e.
County or State).

Most companies will find they have
licensing or permit requirements in their local jurisdictionso you will want to research what licenses your company
might need to operate wherever you will physically be conducting business.Depending on the type of business you conduct
and where you are conducting that business, you may even have obligations with
more than one agency (eg: states, counties, cities, and municipalities).

To help you save time, visit our State Government and Business Resources page, where we have gathered links to many state offices,
to help you begin to find the information that you may need. Links to the
business registration office, and the Division of Revenue/Taxation, for each
state, as well as many other government offices, are provided.

It may seem like a hassle, but this
an important step you will need to take beyond incorporating or forming a
limited liability company!
